Luxury safari lodge in malaria-free Kariega<\/h2>\n

Settlers Drift<\/strong> is located in a remote part of Kariega Game Reserve;<\/strong> a private nature reserve of 10,000 hectares of unspoilt African wilderness on the Eastern Cape,<\/strong>where the entire Big 5<\/strong> lives. The lodge overlooks the valley through which Bushman’s River <\/strong>flows, providing spectacular views both from the main house and from the decks of the nine luxuriously decorated safari tents.<\/p>\n

Walking safaris, game drives and river cruises<\/h4>\n

After an exciting day in the bush, it’s wonderful to let all the impressions settle on the deck with a sundowner in hand, then slide on to the boma for a delicious candlelit meal around the roaring fire.<\/p>\n
